Salesforce1

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff knows how to put on a show. The annual Salesforce conference, Dreamforce takes over San Francisco for a week, with 1450 Sessions, 400 companies presenting and 145,000 registered attendees. Amid the crowds and Uber surge pricing, Salesforce takes the opportunity to trot out their latest product launches and marketing messages.

At Dreamforce last Fall, Salesforce introduced its new platform offering, Salesforce1.This week I attended the World Tour event in NYC for Salesforce1 and spent some time talking to Salesforce execs and an assortment of customers about the platform.
